00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.679
This is UFO sidings Today, The Guardian reports a strange

2
00:00:04.719 --> 00:00:07.799
side effect of our moment. Many viewers say they left

3
00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:11.720
Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day unsure whether they had just watched

4
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:15.880
a movie or witnessed an instruction manual for real world revelation.

5
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:20.719
The piece lays out a cultural confusion celebrities and audiences

6
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.359
treating dramatized disclosure as if it were a new policy,

7
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:31.879
and notes the danger background context, congressional hearings, whistleblowers, ambry

8
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:36.600
and released files have already blurred entertainment and oversight, complicating

9
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:41.200
what counts as new information and who can responsibly demand answers.

10
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.920
Entertainment Weekly gathered ideas from Coleman Domingo, Colin Firth and

11
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:49.759
others for a sequel they call Disclosure Day two. The

12
00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:53.359
responses are playful and earnest, a sign the film has

13
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:57.799
become a cultural shorthand for the disclosure conversation, a reminder

14
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:02.079
that Hollywood now shapes public expectations about what government transparency

15
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:06.040
should look like. In our Disclosure Watch segment, the Debrief

16
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:08.879
reports the Pentagon has released a third batch of UAP

17
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:12.920
files in the Pursue series. Analysts say the package mixes

18
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:17.680
routine censor tracks with a smaller number of genuinely puzzling reports,

19
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:22.239
and that the timing, coming as disclosure day dominates headlines,

20
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:27.159
forces a question will raw data be enough to satisfy

21
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.439
a public primed by film and celebrity, or will it

22
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:35.480
only deepen the confusion. Online, the conversation has turned to

23
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:39.599
newly published journals, where Jacques Vallet writes about Gary Nolan

24
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:44.760
and lou Elizondo pitching Peter Teal and to eyewitness videos.

25
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.959
Buffalo eleven o six pm on June fifteenth, with a

26
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:54.599
plane and frame, Richmond ten thirty six pm on June fifteenth, Graniteville,

27
00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:58.920
June fourteenth, at four forty six pm, a fast reflective sphere.

28
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.040
Official investigators at the Pentagon's Anomaly Resolution Office stress rigorous

29
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:09.639
sensor data, radar satellite telemetry and say many reports reduced

30
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:14.960
to satellites, aircraft, balloons, or camera artifacts, though a subset

31
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:20.639
remain unexplained. Will keep watching the skies. UFO Sightings today
